Where do I begin? The whole LTM team made sure my entire wedding wknd was not only stress free, but also a perfect depiction of a vision I had in my head of what my wedding would be like. To say I am thankful for this is an understatement. We spend years dreaming of our wedding, imagining what it will look like, asking for things we aren't sure are achievable. I had about 1,000 of these details in my head, and LTM did NOT miss a single mark. It was unbelievable and I am quite literally in shock one month later. From the stunning decor, to the magnificent food- the wknd was one no one will never forget. From the moment we pulled up to the manor for our 1st tour appt with Andrew, I knew we had found the venue of our dreams. Furthermore after walking in the front door, you immediately pick up an energy that I had never felt anywhere else. It was warm, cozy, familiar, and it felt like home. I wanted everyone I knew to see this spectacular hidden gem of the earth we had found. Andrew was so thorough & concise and just knows everything there is to know about how to host the perfect wedding. Then the ever so talented Jackie, the photos of her work online had my jaw on the ground, I was so excited to finally meet her. Her extensive and impressive collection of dinnerware, decor, linens, and more can give anyone a beautiful event. The cottage, which is a space you can only dream you will be lucky enough to get ready in on your wedding day- is managed by Janice, I remember talking to her on my tour about everything to expect the wknd, how the morning of getting ready would go, and heard her devotion to making her brides happy. She brought me to tears that day already knowing we would become super close and feeling relieved to know I would have her by my side from day 1. Ted, is also fantastic- his smile lights up the room. He has the voice of an angel and a heart of gold. I could never imagine the wedding planning process to be so fun seeing what some of my friends had gone through. I would talk with the team all the time, we really built a lovely friendship throughout the process. Jackie and Janice were always VERY on top of my details and plans. Whatever advice or crazy requests I had they were there to help me figure out. Before I knew it, it was 1 year into the planning process and time for our tasting! They went above and beyond we had the best day seeing our table decor for the first time which was PERFECTION! It was an exact replica of all of the inspo photos I had shared before, so unique. The tasing was the first time we met Chef Mike, but we had been talking for weeks prior about a bunch of crazy requests I had for my wedding weekend- which you wont be surprised to read were ALL executed beyond perfection once again on the weekend. This consisted of a live hand piped cannoli and Napoleon bar, a live hot pasta chafing station, an Italian inspired interactive charcuterie table, a potato latke station, a NY bagel bar, and more!!! Mike and his team absolutely killed it and ALL of my guests said it was BY FAR the best event food they had ever had. Moving into decor and florals, I loved how the manor had different vibes depending which part of the property you were in, and I wanted to capture that mysterious excitement for my guests with how I decorated each space. My inspo for the rehearsal was Positano Romance, and Jackie literally transposed the Amalfi Coast into the outdoor area of the manor. MULTIPLE guests came up to us to tell us the felt like they were in Italy, it was spectacular, quite literally amazing. The side garden felt like a fairytale to me, my Inspo for this space was Alice in Wonderland, low and behold once again the mark was hit! In the dining rooms I wanted romance and elegance, guess what? CHECK! Candles everywhere, soft florals, you could feel the love no matter which dining room you walked into. The party turned up after dinner and we danced past 12am! Brunch sunday was the perfect send off and it was hard to leave, but it was see you later, not goodbye for me and this group! We will be back!!!

My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lord Thompson Manor. We are so thrilled to have picked this venue to host our wedding for the entire weekend; in all honesty it was the easiest decision we made during this entire process. They were so thorough and helpful right from our very first meeting, and far surpassed any other venue we considered.

During the year and a half of planning leading up to our wedding, they thoroughly and thoughtfully explained every detail, cost, and idea with warmth and professionalism, taking our thoughts and budget into account every step of the way. This is the perfect venue for someone who is looking for a site that is both efficiently run and puts the effort into every single detail of your wedding as if it were their own.

LTM has a directory of various, incredibly professional vendors already vetted and lined up for you. The team at Lord Thompson Manor also helped us find cost effective solutions during our planning process to stay within our budget; something most if not all venues will consciously ignore. Our entire wedding weekend was so organized and came together beautifully due to the efforts of their incredible staff. Jackie, Janice, Brittany, Ted, and Andrew, among the plenty of other wonderful staff members, anticipated our every need throughout the weekend and handled any question or change that may have arisen.

Every single detail was thought of, from the amazing floral design and décor, to the unparalleled, delicious food (which our guests said was without a doubt "the best wedding food” they've ever had). The feedback we received from our guests throughout the weekend was overwhelmingly positive and everyone had an incredible time. The LTM team helped create lifelong memories for us and we will be forever grateful to this venue. As I may have alluded to above, choosing LTM was the best decision we made during this process. We cannot recommend this site and this team enough!

I am honestly not sure I can put into words how wonderful my wedding weekend was at Lord Thompson Manor. While they executed my husband and my vision perfectly for both the rehearsal dinner and wedding, I think where they truly take the cake is their team. Andrew and Jackie are on top of things from the moment you schedule a tour. They answered every question, gave me ideas for various aspects of the weekend, and just reassured my husband and me every step of the way. Janice and Ted were present the entire weekend. I am fully convinced they can fix any problem. Truly. Bride is sick for the rehearsal dinner (which I was)? They had a remedy to help me feel better and continuously checked in on me. Bride’s dress gets ripped? Janice bustled my dress with pins in the coat room! Ted was there until 2:30am Sunday and handled every situation that arose that I wasn’t even aware of until after the wedding was over. Lex was around snapping pictures of the night so we got to look through wedding pictures on our way to the airport! She was so helpful checking in on people and assisting where needed. Chef Mike worked with us extensively to create a menu that catered to my various allergies while still tasting delicious. He kept me safe, and I can’t thank him enough for that.
In summary, pick Lord Thompson Manor to be your venue. I do not think my husband and I would’ve enjoyed our wedding weekend as much as we did if it wasn’t for the incredible team at Lord Thompson Manor.
